i've gone through the search and since I'm on a Mac, I can't use the only solution I've found here: Mojo Mail or something like that. Here's my problem hope someone can explain to me why I'm retarded Sad  I'm trying to send a complex html email through either Outlook or Entourage (neither will work) I receive and view them fine from others but can't seem to send one here's some of the code from one I received:
Code:
MIME-Version: 1.0
Date: Thu, 5 Feb 2004 17:25:08 GMT
Content-type: text/html
Subject: ACLU Online: Seeking Justice for Detained Immigrants; SAFE Act Viability

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>ACLU Online: Seeking Justice for Detained Immigrants; SAFE Act Viability</TITLE>
</HEAD>



and here's mine after I sent it to another one of my email accounts:

Code:
> This message is in MIME format. Since your mail reader does not understand
this format, some or all of this message may not be legible.

--B_3159090212_2917468
Content-type: multipart/alternative; boundary="B_3159090213_2917483"


--B_3159090213_2917483
Content-type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"
Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>:::: Cultural Unity :::: Cultura Unida ::::</TITLE>
</HEAD>


this is just one of many I've tried with tons of different combinations.

I've got a meta tag in the html that says content="text/html however, I read somewhere that email programs don't recognize meta tags - so I'm stuck trying to figure this out. I've tried Horde, Entourage, and Outlook and gone through all the options and preferences - could someone just give me some html they know works and give me some simple steps in sending it? I even pasted the code from the one I received fine and it still won't work!

FINALLY!!! I went and got an old version of Mozilla and the mail program it has works great. Just another reason to dislike Microsoft even more!! Thanks to all for reading my post and for anyone who may have spent more than a second thinking about it!! Cheers!

LOL!! That's GREAT, trebormojo.  Yes, I admit I was one of those who read your post and I truly did spend more than a second thinking about it (took more than a second reading it, too  Luff Ya , but unfortunately couldn't give an answer, so left you hanging in the wind, sorry.

I'm so glad that you found a fix, because I was sad that no one could respond to your cry for help!  Crying or Very sad  But, I'm happy again now!  Applause
